Hi there, since a week a proud owner of an epiphone thunderbird 60's. I love the bass, but as many i have issues with the intonation and I am considering replacing the bridge. I am however not at all technical and am not sure which bridge, if any, would fit preferably without having to drill new...

That moment of utter annoyance when 6 bloody months ago you've spent a small fortune for a fusion s800 head, plus the neo 1V cabs plus the rack ears to have it all neatly build in. And now, 6 months later, I still have yet to receive the rack ears. I just called Thomann.de, they no say June. I...

Still, the problem I have is that everytime I want to play without the entire house hearing it, I can’t just plug in a headphone but I actually need to physically disconnect the speaker cables behind the rig. Isn’t there some other way?

That seems pretty risky to me. It really doesn’t make sense though to have a headphone output but no possibility to play headphones only/bypass the cabinet.

So perhaps a silly question. But on the fusion 800s. How does one play just over headphones? I connected my headphones in the phones output on the back. But it doesn’t engage my cabinet. Manual doesn’t say anything about it. Asking for my neighbors, i guess

Is there any news on the rack mount kits for fusion 800s? They seem to be sold out everywhere outside of the usa

Hi so my bass sounds muddy and the neck pickup seems to lack power. They were very low though, big distance to the strings. They were originally set higher but the pickup ‘shot out’ during playing and I had ti adjust it lower to prevent it from happening again. i just took the pickup out...

Thank you. Well that’s a big disappointment, now i have to wait another day for the nl2 plug to come in. Do how did you spot the difference? Because when I look at images the nl2 and nl4 look the same to me. I ordered this: is that correct? Procab / Neutrik PRA502 NL2 - NL2 Speakon speakerkabel...

Ok so i feel extremely stupid. I bought my fusion 800 s and the 4x10 neo iv. For that sum of money I assumed cables would be included. Well, nope. So drove to the music store to get speakon cable. I understand they shoukd rotate in, correct? Except they don’t. What am i doing wrong?

Looking at possible amp/cab combinations. I’m thinking of getting the fusion 800s but then there’s the cab question. The 410 neo iv is more than twice the price of the CX410. They are lighter, but other than that is there a big difference to justify this?

The problem is that here (the Netherlands) very few places sell GK. And I haven’t found a single place that has both the legacy, the fusion and the new cabs in stock to try out. So the RB series had the biwiring thing going on provided you use the GK cabs and special cable. Am I correct that...

With the risk of being a stupid newbie. So after watching me play live now, my wife has found a purpose in doing stage photography. So being the supportive husband, of course we got her all the lenses she now needs, with the added benefit of buying much more understanding of the fact that I...

Oh wait. I’m in the wrong subforum? Oops. Really sorry

So after my first live performance (oh my that felt sooooo good) the wife now agrees that i need a real bass head/cab and not just my current combo. I play all kinds of music, from pop to metal and i LOVE a perfect circle and Tool. So. Options. GK1000-rb weighs a ton but has the Tool factor...

So my band also wants to play some acoustic stuff. Contemplating on buying an electro acoustic bass but i’m on a budget. Doesn’t have to be top of the line. Im thinking about a Fender CB-60SCE. Any thoughts on this bass, or recommendations for other basses in the same rough price range?
